Did Clay Shaw commit perjury when he said he'd never worked for the CIA?

[Michael Capasse]

Maybe it was "Bertrand"

The Attorney General’s remarks consequently amounted to an acceptance of Garrison’s
charge that Clay Shaw and "Clay Bertrand” are one and the same. “It’s the same guy,”
said one source in the Justice Department.

"Justice Admits Error in Shaw-Bertrand Tie"/George Lardner

"The Department of Justice acknowledged yesterday that it goofed in ever suggesting that Clay Shaw was the mysterious "Clay Bertrand" sought after the assassination of President Kennedy.

Attorney General Ramsey Clark took responsibility for the snafu in a statement issued by a Department spokesman. Clark, the spokesman said, felt that justice would best be served by the embarrassing admission.

see all the ducks go in a row.

See all the ducks go in a row.

What's that supposed to mean?

[Steve M. Galbraith]

see all the ducks go in a row. 

So Clark "reveals" that Shaw was Bertrand; "they" (them again) then had to scramble to cover that up: and you conclude from this that they had "all the ducks in a row"?

I would think if they had their ducks lined up that Clark wouldn't have revealed this in the first place. Some ducks, some row. There I go with that crazy lone nutter logic again. The world where 1+1 = 2 and not conspiracy world where it's whatever one wants it to be.

I know I shouldn't but how did they get Clark to retract the statement? And then keep it quiet the remainder of his life? This is Ramsey Clark, someone known for taking on the government. Did they threaten him with the secret death squads going around silencing witnesses?

who is saying that?  -  nutters !
I'm talking about the hundreds of mistakes that are magically corrected over 62 years ....

It was a mistake, pure and simple.

Can you give us some examples, Mr. CT?
